KCB is yet to see bad things. For Safaricom, Ethiopia will take time to bring positive contribution to the profits & Ndegwa still doesn't inspire 3+ years down the line.

Let me swear & die with the traditional; BAT, Stanchart & ABSA. Thinking of Williamson & Kapchorua 🤔

All "controlled" by foreigners smile

ABSA's market cap > KCB market cap shows how much KCB's share price has fallen. Huge NPLs.

I really enjoy the dividends from WTK/KTC but the catch is politics come 2027. I think in 2008 they had equipment that was destroyed.

Relax the macros are starting to moderate. Dollar index failed to get to march to 110. Local bond yields are now above eurobond. CBK finally stopped maintaining the artificial exchange rate.

Always good to remember when George Soros was shorting the pound he had hedged by also buying UK equities. Currency depreciations are good for equities.

The Kenya shilling is chasing bonds and USD. Meaning investors are generally buying these two assets - Bonds and USD. The CBK governor has just stated that the shilling is still over-valued. So those who are wisely protecting their purchasing power are divesting from the Kenya Shilling.

Currency depreciations are good for equities.
Not for all equities.

Firms with huge FX loans suffering huge FX losses
KPLC
KQ
Unga

And many, many more.

Unless you are net cash [no FX debt] eg Carbacid or an exporter eg WTK, you will suffer losses.

Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered.

Every housewife is now talking about infrastructure bonds and USD. A shoeshine lad will tell you Kshs is headed to 200. It's time to get out of that trade

USD MMFs > KES Bonds > Equities for now.

Jibran Qureishi of Stanbic told us about the KES falling like a rock lakini Njoro threatened Stanbic KE.
Anyway, here we are!
